Big Sauce! The Phoenix Suns’ big weapon off the bench has a big summer ahead

Alan Williams just recently won the Dan Majerle Hustle Award. Not bad for a player who went undrafted in 2015, barely caught onto an NBA team last spring, and was only averaging 7.2 minutes, 3.1 points and 3.2 rebounds per game before the All-Star break. At that point he was probably known mostly for his wildly exuberant cheer-leading from the bench and his famous Police Chief mom.

But after the break, Tyson Chandler was shut down for the season and "Big Sauce" was giving the opportunity to show what he could do on the court as the primary backup at the center position.
